Fred was an amazing agent and someone who knows DC real estate. He was very easy to work with and extremely honest. I would definitely recommend Fred to anyone who is interested in buying or selling a home.

My partner and I had a great experience buying our first home with Fred as our Realtor. Fred thoroughly explained the home buying process to us and was quick to answer all of our questions along the way. Once we found a place we loved, he acted as our advocate in negotiating the best deal for us. I would absolutely recommend Fred to any of my friends or colleagues looking for a Realtor.

Work History

Real Estate Development

Property In Washington LLC

September 1998 - present

The first property I bought and rehabilitated was in Ferndale, Michigan. I found a great little house that needed updating it was my own house and it took me a few years to finish it but it was fun and very profitable. I moved to DC in 1998 and started doing the same thing with condo, co-ops and houses. It has been a fun, rewarding and profitable business! I also have 5 years experience buying and selling property in Argentina and I am available for consultation on an hourly basis.
